I would like to reset all the progress in order to attempt a speed run. What is the best way to remove the terrible understanding of things best left hidden that have been burned into my mind?

I'm rather late so I'm not sure if you're still taking questions but here's one that I've been wondering:

Before the KS started you gave a couple of rather introspective interviews and had a few blog posts in terms of life events that have informed your games (so Cultist Simulator, managing your time to follow a dream. Sunless Sea, captaining a ship into a vast unknown. Both reflect the state of Weather Factory and Failbetter at the time). I also noted that when you talked about them these were realized after the fact. That is, the fathers bones ambition was not added intentionally to reflect your background (if I understood correctly).

Was there something about Cultist Simulator that provoked this kind of introspection? I was mostly struck by how it seemed more explicit this time around (then again I suppose you weren't doing the same kind of interviews too).

Thanks for doing the AMA and the hours of entertainment!

Thanks! I like hearing you talk too.
